Privacy Policy
The McCollum Firm, PC. (“the Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal information collected through this website. This Privacy Statement explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information obtained from visitors to our site. It applies only to information collected online through this website and not to information collected through our legal representation or in other offline contexts.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you visit this website, we may collect:
-
Information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, contact details, and any other information you submit through contact forms, newsletter sign‑ups, event registrations, or email links.
-
Technical information automatically collected, such as your IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit, which may be gathered through cookies, log files, analytics tools, and similar technologies.
You should not submit confidential or sensitive information through this website’s contact forms, as doing so does not create an attorney–client relationship, and such information may not be treated as privileged or confidential.
​

-
Respond to your inquiries, requests, or comments and communicate with you about our services.

Operate, maintain, customize, and improve our website, including monitoring performance and usage trends.

With service providers that perform services on our behalf (such as website hosting, analytics, email delivery, or IT support), subject to appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information collected through this website from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
